Not important at all Of little importance Of average importance

Very important Absolutely essential Jhangiani & Jhangiani (2016)

I would not have bought the text book for this course because it's an elective. I would have possibly walked away with a C, now I might actually get an A-‐

It is easily accessible and convenient. Material is easy to understand and follow

I personally really like the convenience of having the complete set of chapters on my computer and even accessible from my phone if I need it. I like that I don't have to lug around another text book

It's free and it's a great money saver
